One of the more interesting phrases i have come across is this
"God never promised that it will be easy, but He promises that it will be worth it"
Isn't that true ? I find that to be very applicable to me, though at times i know it is tough and i do go on the downside from time to time, but no matter what, i always attempt to look on the positive side of things. no matter how bad things may seem to be, how bad can it be if God is in the picture ? it is so encouraging to read of praises to God on people's blog, twitter, tumblr, msn. but yet there are times in which i get demoralized by praises. praise unto God should be a daily thing, not a once in a while or occasional thing. But yet get unto the roads and ask any random christian you find "what's your praise unto God today?" sadly, most will go mum about it, why so ?
just something to think about, but i find that people should give more praises, for each and every single day, one should look towards areas to thank God for.
sure... people always say talk easy.. but as stated above, i know it is not easy, but it will definitely be worth it !
seriously, what on earth is easy ? what is easy to one, is difficult for another . i find it easy to let go of money, even after losing a substantial amount of cash, i still am able to smile. not stating that i am rich. The point i want to say is that, how ready are you able to let go of the negatives given by the devil and embrace the positives given by God ? surely everyone would have experienced a negative in their lives before, but in all occasions, look towards the positives of God and embrace them. cause at the end of the day, it will be worth it !
another thing on my mind is .. a rather common topic among people my age, which is relationships. This Chinese new year, several of my relatives asked "got girlfriend or not ?"
ok pause there, just a question, is it natural or stereotype of question that will be posed to people entering into the adult age ? no idea, i asked a few people from lg, and it seems that some face similar problems and have no idea how to reply. for me, my reply was, still got time. from now till i officially stick to a proper job, when will it be ? 2 years army, 2 years to settle on a job, will be at least 5 years from now (still got poly year 3) . so .. what's the rush ? the dating period is not suppose to be very long either. so i dun see what the big deal is. furthermore, i have yet to decide if i am going to university, if i do, maximum number of years i will remain in uni will probably be 5 years. if you take into consideration the maximum base number of years a person will spent (depending on course, the duration may increase or shrink). plus, most people fail a module or 2 also. so .. it will lengthen the time.
I would want to encourage all other people out there that are pondering over this issue. God will provide, dun worry too much about who you will be spending your future with, cause ultimately, God has His plans for you. we just need to obey and follow.
personally, i do have plans for myself, just very vague and "landmarks" of my own life up till 30years of age. i have yet to state down the details of it yet, but i do know that i want to go somewhere, somewhere where i will be useful.
